2003. I was wondering if it is possible to create a script on a
linux
machine and use the Win32 extensions...since I need those to
use WMI python module as well. Is this actually possible?
Yes if you spend a lot of money.
You can buy a set of libraries from a comany called Bristol
Technology (I think, it's over 8 years since I used it!) that allows
you to build Windows software on a Unix box. A bit like cygwin
in reverse! Some Microsoft developers actually used it during the
development of the first version of Windows NT I believe!
However a more practical route is probably to just install
VMWare (or similar virtualisation software) and a cheap copy
of Windows XP Pro/Home.
I am deploying Windows Servers from behind
a linux PXE.
PXE?
HTH,
